Hello everyone...

I have recently switched from crackberry to android, about 6-8 weeks ago...

Since then I have perm-rooted + s-offed, flashed about 10 roms (sometimes the same ROM more than once) etc...

I have noticed that throughout this "learning how to screw things up" period, my sdcard has become nothing short of a train wreck...

I am going to transfer the files I want to keep over to my PC and format my card...

My question is:

Should I format my card via the PC or through the recovery console?

Additionally, should i reserve some space for swap or does android not utilize swap?

Also, should the card be just one large partition or should i break it down into a few different ones (system/personal/etc)?

Thank you all in advamce for your input!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] blackknightavalon:
As long as the main partition is FAT32 you can format it on an old Windows 95 computer.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Recommend formatting in the computer. A usb card reader is the best way, preferred would be one that only does MicroSD and not a multi- card reader.

One large partition is the right answer, don't try to get too creative, you'll end up outsmarting yourself.

At this time, I don't think there are any apps that need creative partitioning of the sdcard to run, so you should be good.

I also recommend that you see about picking up a class 10 MicroSD card, it will make a noticable difference in speed when accessing the card with the phone. (Playing a movie, game with sdcard files, etc...)

Make sure to always properly eject the MicroSD card from the computer before removing it, especially when you plug the phone into the computer. I've already permanently broken 2 MicroSD cards in the MT4GS by removing prematurely.

When flashing a ROM you will stay with for a while, what I like to do is insert the MicroSD card into the computer with a MicroSD reader, format the card, and put only the ROM install file on it.

Then I put it in my powered-off phone, boot to recovery, then flash the ROM.

This let's the ROM create all the files on the SDcard fresh, and helps keep you from having a mess all over the place.

I'm moving the contents of a storage unit today, and not the driver, so I'll check back here and there while we're on the road.

Hope this helps you get started, what operating system are you using on the computer? That may help to give you advice.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] KrnlPanic:
Wow as usual Blue6IX...

I am running windows 7, Server 2008 r2 and slackware.

*Thank you for the brilliant ROM Blue6IX
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Okay, I haven't moved past windows XP, and i'm moving away from the windows line at this point. I've had some limited experience with win7, but i'm not too interested in investing the time to move forward in that direction.

Besides getting a dedicated MicroSD USB card reader (I have a handful of SanDisk ones) I'd also recommend getting an extra MicroSD card too.

Doesn't have to be big or fast, just a backup.

I carry my phone is a zipper-case that was for a camera. Still slim enough to fit in my pocket nicely, and keeps dirt and dust out of my phone.

It has an outside pocket, and I keep a spare MicroSD card that is freshly formatted, with only the zip for my ROM install and my most recent Clockworkmod backup on it.

I figure this way if something bad happens to my phone in the field, I have an un-corrupted clean "rescue disk" - a rescue MicroSD card.

I can (worst case scenario) power off the phone, put the clean MicroSD card in, then boot to Clockworkmod and either re-flash the ROM itself, or restore my most recent Clockworkmod backup.

(okay, I keep a few other backed-up files on it, like pictures and so forth, but it's an 8 gig card so I have the space)

Something else cool about this practice is it gets you familiar with cycling backups and maintaining a current one. You have to copy the backup to the card, forcing you to stop and deal with it - making you more used to backing up your data and making it a more intuitive process. You also end up with more then one copy of your backup

(usually 3 - one on the phone, one on the memory card, and one on a computer. Bonus points for burning a disk - and I always copy over to a flash drive too)

I'm big on backups, so it's only natural for me but doing something like this is good advice for everyone.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] KrnlPanic:
Thank you for the information, Blue... I currently have back ups on my sdcard, a stock Rom on my sdcard as well as my PC and my cloud storage (just in case)...

I think i'll wipe my card today...

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] KrnlPanic:
Woohoo! Fresh sdcard... Only an 8gb but I am back to 5.6gb free... :)

The only other question I have, well 2 actually are:

When performing my nandroid back up I get the following message:

"error backing up sd-ext...not found" (something to that extent)

The second question is in terminal, when I do 'df' all my file system block sizes are 4096, my sdcard block size is 32768...

To me it makes sense that my sdcard block size should match my OS block size, no?

(I'm a complete noob so please, correct me where I'm wrong)

Sd-ext is a holdover from "app2sd" - nothing to worry about.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] blackknightavalon:
We don't have A2SD yet, just buggy symlinks between /data/app and /sdcard/.android-secure.

Screens developed a dead pixel and I need to return it (im presuming they''l take it back)

How do I unroot it and return it to how it was so I can take it back to the shop?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mike1986.:
Check your warrant terms. Most probably if the dead pixel is not a result of rooting/installing 3rd party software then your warranty is valid for this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stretlow:
I've been issued a fault code from phones4u for exchange I havent really changed anything barring rooting it, The only thing is when you switch it on when its unlocked there is an unlocked padlock icon on the spalsh screen

Do you think they'll check/ be bothered?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] axtn95:
Download Titanium, remove superuser, then "fastboot oem lock"

I think that should work, then just factory reset to top it off
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bfroehlich:
fastboot oem lock will lock the bootloader back and remove the padlock from the splash screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stretlow:
Thanks for that.

If I do a factory reset it wont brick or anything will it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mike1986.:
No, it wont :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stretlow:
brilliant, they've given me a fault code from head office so shouldn't be something I shouldnt be able to blag
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stretlow:
Ok so I did a factory reset and locked to bootloader and went to phones4u you...

all were willing to exchange it.

1 was closing.

1 didnt have any

1 had one and had been opened as a show phone so I refused it

and the final one had 3... all opened..

Why do they feel the need to open all the boxes ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stretlow:
Finally got it exchanged this morning for a brand spanker.

Unlocked, Rooted

Trying but somehow cannot get CIFS working. Anyone got a working slow-work / cifs for this kernel?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] piit79:
I briefly tested cifs and it worked fine. This is what I did:

adb shell
insmod /lib/modules/cifs.ko
mount -o username=user,password=pass -t cifs //server/share /mountpoint

Which worked fine. I found that the mount command doesn't prompt for the password if you only use -o username=xxx like I'm used to from Linux.

How are you trying to use cifs? I assume not from console...

Great job with the kernel and wonderful that you're sustaining your development and giving us newer and newer versions :D

I hate to be the noob though, but...I gotta ask...

What's the deal with Hyperdroid Red Pill Recovery? How's it different than the regular CWR and if I ever want to go back to CWR (or a newer version of it) would I just flash it regularly, like any .zip?
